Gizmo's Story...

Gizmo's Story...

Gizmo is Shar Pei/Bulldog-mix, male, 2 years of age.

Social, friendly, sweet-natured, casually-relaxed, and mild-mannered, this handsome hunk is a charmer who will completely steal your heart before you even realize it. Calm and pretty quiet, tranquil, sincere, polite, and extremely sensitive, Gizmo’s an easy-to-please, very well-mannered boy who genuinely and wholeheartedly loves people. Readily sharing his affection and kisses upon invitation, he is a people-oriented canine who lives for companionship and close contact, and he loves to snuggle.

Animated and lively, inquisitive and involved, Gizmo needs regular mental stimulation and physical activity to stay happy and healthy. His exercise needs are pretty modest though and can be met leashed walks, interactive outdoor romps, and adventurous outings alongside family members who he will, of course, be fawningly devoted to. Attentive and intelligent with a high learning ability; Gizmo is quick to please when he knows what is expected of him; not only will he benefit from training and socialization classes and excel in obedience, but this will also be an excellent way to bond with him as well as to reinforce good canine manners.

Longing to be a cherished, always included family member in his own forever home, Gizmo is looking for responsible, caring owners willing to provide him with the exercise, leadership, and companionship he needs and craves.

Gizmo is best suited as an indoor pet and companion for a home with a low-active to moderately-active lifestyle. While we think he’ll get along well with a compatible, similar-sized dog he has been properly introduced to, particularly one of the opposite-sex, a home visit and a meet-n-greet with any housemate pets will be required prior to adoption. Gizmo’s also pretty comfortable around children of all ages, and he’ll do well in just about any home where children and pets alike are taught to respect boundaries and interaction is monitored as it should be.

All Monroe SPCA dogs available for adoption at the shelter have an adoption fee of $120.00. This fee includes the dog being spayed or neutered, HW negative, up-to-date on age appropriate vaccinations, and micro-chipped prior to adoption.

About Our Rescue Group...

Monroe SPCA (Monroe Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals) is a 501c.3 tax-exempt, non-profit animal welfare and rescue organization incorporated in the State of Michigan in 2010. Monroe SPCA is governed by all-volunteer Board of Directors.

Monroe SPCA’s mission is to save, protect, and improve the lives of animals. One of the ways we accomplish our mission is by being the leading non-profit organization facilitating adoptions and providing medical care and treatment to homeless animals at Monroe County Animal Control. We are also the leading rescuer and rehabilitator of animals at this shelter, finding and securing placement for some of the neediest and most vulnerable animals with partner rescue organizations (all of them no-kill) as well as through our own network of foster homes.

Additionally, Monroe SPCA, now, also provides every dog at Monroe County Animal Control with basic preventative health care which includes flea preventative, deworming(s), DHPP vaccine and booster, and Heartworm Testing. If a dog tests positive for Heartworm, Monroe SPCA also provides that dog with Heartworm Treatment.

Our Adoption Process...

Our adoption process starts with filling out an Adoption Application on the animal you're interested in adopting. Once we've received and reviewed your completed application we’ll contact you, usually within 2-3 days (remember, we're all volunteers). Our adoptions are best-fit placements, meaning we strive to ensure a good match for both, the animal being adopted and the adopter.

Our adoption fee for dogs and puppies is $120.00 to $200.00.Our adoption fee for cats and kittens is $75.00.

Adoption fee includes the animal being spayed or neutered, up-to-date on age appropriate vaccinations, and micro-chipped prior to adoption as well as all dogs being Heartworm negative or receiving treatment for Heartworm.
